Life in a Day is one of the most amazing films I have ever seen. Produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald, its intention is to "capture what it was like to be alive on the 24th of July, 2010... for future generations".

4500 hours of footage was captured from 192 countries documenting people's lives over the course of the day, as well as answering a few questions, "What do you love? What do you fear? What's in your pocket?".

There is no particular story line or single theme, just some amazing footage that captures how diverse and extraordinary our world is. Across cultures and continents, we have the same fears, routines and fascinations, all with slight variances. The film does a great job of capturing our similarities and differences, giving some perspective to the vulnerability and diverse nature of humans.

If New York is an oil painting, London is a watercolour.

I’ve always thought London’s Canary Wharf is such a weird, but interesting place. Only a few decades ago it was one of the world’s busiest shipping ports - East India Dock was at the centre, bringing goods into Europe from across the East. Today, it’s one of the world’s largest financial districts and continues to grow... 15 or so new skyscrapers under construction.

I love seeing the old industrial elements mixed in with the new city.

... Managed to get a few afternoon shots last week when the light was looking nice 🤙🏼.
